PPFN 50TH ANNIVERSARY
LOGO DESIGN COMPETITION
Introduction
Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria (PPFN) is the successor of the Family Planning Council of Nigeria (FPCN) which was established on November 19th 1964 by a few public spirited Nigeria Medical and Social Welfare professionals in response to the spate of undesirable pregnancies, child dumping, illegally induced abortions and the consequent high rate of maternal and child morbidity in the Country.
PPFN was incorporated in Nigeria under the Companies and Allied Matters Decree 1990 (Cap 59) as a voluntary and charitable non-government, non-profit making or sharing organization. It is a full member of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), Federation of some 180 Country Family Planning Associations, promoting FP/SRH services world-wide. PPFN is a national organization with volunteer membership in all the states of Nigeria and a network of clinics throughout the country. PPFN is involved with five programmatic areas known as the (5) A’s –Advocacy, Access, Adolescents, HIV/AIDS, Abortion.
2014 thus marks 50 years since the establishment of PPFN and has grown to be recognized as the largest Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) in Nigeria providing Family Planning, Sexual and Reproductive Health Services.
